Dear Dennis and children,
As you know from Walter's call this morning, we were unaware of Elaine's death. We certainly would have attended the services had we known. It's been a long and difficult road for all of you but a testimony to your loving care for her. We don't know anyone who's been so able over so many years to do what all of you have done with obvious longstanding love.
Denise and Walter Williams

It was sad news to hear of Elaine's passing. It was evident that she was so loved by her family and you could tell that she knew how much she was loved. It was very unfair that Elaine was a victim of this horrible disease at such a young age. She is free now, her mind and soul have been returned to the Universe, watching over all that stood by her through the tough years. God Bless you all and sending hugs to Dennis.

It was very sad news to hear of Elaine's passing. She had great love all around her and despite her illness, it was evident that she loved her family and knew how much she was loved. It is a devastating disease and it hit Elaine too young, and it is so unfair that she was unable to enjoy her life. Her mind, body and soul is released now to the Universe, she is free of the limits of the Earth. She will forever remain in the hearts of those who love her. Hugs to all.
